One Rusty Spur

Michael Hall is convicted of treason and sentenced to be hanged. His life is measured by the hours it will take for his executioners to cross the rain-swollen Osage River. He prays for a deliverer, and God sends one—Kate. Will she trust him enough to help him escape? Is it possible for her to outwit his captors or will she be implicated and hanged too?

Kate Douglas led a simple life until a band of Union soldiers and a condemned prisoner stopped at her parent's farm. Kate is drawn to the prisoner, knowing he will die when the flooding river recedes. The soldiers create havoc for the family, but the prisoner sends her heart whirling. Did she find love only to watch him die?
